Hope’s® Thermal Evolution™ Technology Earns a 2015 Glass Magazine Award

JAMESTOWN, NY – Hope’s® patented Thermal Evolution™ technology for hot-rolled, solid steel windows is the recipient of the 2015 Glass Magazine Award for the window category.

Glass Magazine’s prestigious glass and metal industry awards program recognizes the best products and glass applications for the commercial, retail and fabrication markets.

Awards were given in eight product and project categories, including “Most Innovative Curtain Wall, Window or Storefront Product” – the full name of the category in which Hope’s Thermal Evolution technology leads.

“This is another confirmation of the great leap forward Hope’s Thermal Evolution technology represents,” says Randy Manitta, President/CEO of Hope’s. “We greatly appreciate the recognition from Glass Magazine.”

Hope’s Thermal Evolution technology is a breakthrough solution for hot-rolled, solid steel windows to meet increasingly stringent energy efficiency standards. Steel is five times more thermally resistant than aluminum, making it the ideal material for long-lasting energy efficient windows and doors. Now, with Thermal Evolution technology, all the intrinsic strengths of solid hot-rolled steel are maintained along with enhanced thermal efficiency, exceeding today's most stringent thermal codes.

Unlike common thermal-breaks, Hope’s frames are not split.  To retain the superior structural strength and durability of steel, Hope’s solid steel windows remain completely intact for the full depth of the window profile.
